Rachel @ Dorset Food, Drink & Farming Awards
The food was being raved about by everyone I spoke to. The standard and quality was excellent and we really appreciate the effort you went to, to make sure everything was locally sourced from Dorset - even the mushrooms!! The service was also excellent and all kept to time throughout the evening. We really couldn't fault anything - please pass on our thanks to the whole team.

I would like to express my thanks for your whole approach to yesterdays evening from the quality of food, the service, the professional organisation, staff dress, and all aspects. This was also an opportunity to ‘see Beales Gourmet in action’ and we were very impressed. We will continue to send out your sample menus for all corporate enquiries, and I look forward to being able to establish a long term events relationship with you.

Thank you so much for your fantastic support over the last year, it really was appreciated – you were an absolute star....
We were absolutely thrilled with how our first ever Ball went and received so many fantastic comments regarding both the food which was beyond first class and the service!
The level of support we received prior to the event, during the day and on the night itself was fantastic.
Please do pass on our BIG thanks also to Ebony, she was so helpful at all times during the day/evening and a credit to Beales Gourmet too – also a big well done to each and every member of the waiting staff, it was incredible that such a huge number of guests all received each course in a very timely and co-ordinated manner.
